NEBRASKA CITY is in state of wild and
rapturous delight because she has been Sc
lected as one of the localities for a militia sta
ton. Major John 9. Watson is now recruit
ing the company, and thinks they will be In
"fghting trim" within q week or ten days.
Among the incidents Of the dashing majors
experience none perhaps was more striking
than the speech he made upon receiving his
commission. There was gathered in front of
the famous ten-cent store crowd of admiring
and enthusiastic citizens. The major jumped
upon an empty barrel and with all the fire
and passion of his soul threw out the follow
ing shafts of elOquence:

Prolonged cheers The major was serenaded
that night by DR.. Bishops martial band, and
1t is said that he thought it was the enemy
and commenced shooting out the window.

WASHINGTON is more worldly, as bad
as when congress is IN session." writes q
bright young woman, thoroughly ac-
quainted with the capital city, its men
and their ways. The young lady is cor
rect. There is more of corruption, social
rs well as political, In Washington than
in any other American city. There are
men without number thriving by job
berry, whose very presence in any circle
Is almost certain evidence of sinister
schemes being on foot. There are hun.
dreds of "high.hying" women supported
by men or corporations with jobs in pros.
peot, who rely upon these women, who
remain there the year round, to do SER
vices as lobbyists. A hunt for simplicity
womanly modesty aud genuine integrity
will prove more successful in probably
any other city in America than in the
eahon's capital.

THE Westminster Presbyterian church.
of ST. Paul, Mimi, is having trouble with
its pastor, the Rev. G. G! Herrlott. The
charge against the reverend gentleman
is that his desire for earthly gains IN the
buying and selling of real estate has led
him to almost forget his ministerial mis-
sion. II he could only convince himself
that there were bargains in real estate
elsewhere than in St. Paul or on the
planet called earth, he no doubt would
become an enthusiast.

Waiting for the Mail.

With anxious features worn and pale,
He waits the coming OF the mail: ~
Each day he asks, with hope and fear,
MY letter, Is my letter hereW
Each day he hears In silence dumb;
mot yet, old man, 1t has not come"
The harmless madman, old and gray,
No one would jeer or drive away.
"Ah me-" he says, long years have past,
But it will come, twill come at last"
And so he waits In silence dumb,
The letter that will never come.
Through misty vision OF his tears,
He sees the long far-sundered years,
The past comes up before him there.
When he was strong aud she was fair.
Once more he feels in very TRUTH
The leaping pulses OF his youth;
A strong, strange JOY he feels again
The old wild fever in his brain:
An angry word, q careless tone.
And she has gone and he's alone.
Since then he waits In silence dumb,
The letter that will never come.
Alas his poor old wits are fled,
He cannot know that she is dead;
And so he asks Ii, DER ana DER,
The same old question as before.
lie wakes with morning light to say:
my letter, it will come to-day"
With tottering limbs that almost fail,
He creeps each morning to the mail,
And hears with ever new regret,
mot yet, old man. not yet, not yet."
And so he waits in silence dumb,
The letter that will never come.
All me poor madman even we
Are dupes of tickle destiny;
In ceaselsss hope we waiting sit,
For misslve that were never writ.
We wait to see the harvest grown.
OF seed that we have never sown;
We seek the harbOr mouth to hail
The vessels that will never sail.
We wait to see our garner filled
With fruit of fields we have not titled.
We wait IN gathering stiffness dumb,
For letters that will never come.

A RfG or HiatOPv


A few of the habitual and hardened
liars OF the state press have taken occa-
sion during the past two weeks. to insin.
uate that Curry, the brutal, burly negro
who was employed to assasslnate Mr.
Rosewater some ton years ago, was the
victim of Mr.. Rosewater's cunning"
that the NEGRO who was respectable
slightly touched MIR. Rosewater with a
cane" for which Curry served several
years in the penitentiary. These stories
eminated from the traitorous editor of
the Lincoln Journal. We do not desire
to burden our columns with story
which is yet remembered by all the old
citizens of Omaha and the state at large
but to show the utter inconsistency of
the reports circulated by tho scabs of the
country press, headed by the journalistic
jackal who presides over the Lincoln
journal, and answer several letters ad-
dressed to MIR. Rosewater regarding the
assault, we print elsewhere the report as
it appeared in the Herald the day after
the crime was committed. Edltorially
the Herald denounced the outrage as a
brutal and cOwardly assault" and every
honest man in the state knows that Curry
was only playing his part in great con.
spiracy, conceived by a band of polt.
ical rogues and mountebanks, to kill Mr..
Rosewater, in order that they might con.
tinue unmolested in their criminal prac.
tices. Those who read the Herald's re-
port of the infamous crime will at once
see how inconsistent and unprofessional
it is in the Lincoln Journal to print and
circulate reports bearing no likeness to
truth, decency or justice.
